Another C-list idiot in the Cabinet because those already there didn't expect to win in May.

Senator Ruston argued that increasing the rate of Newstart was a simplistic solution to challenging problems, especially when 35 per cent of taxpayer spending was on welfare.

"We can't just keep on adding money to this bucket, because we're not making a difference," she said.

"Giving (people) more money would do absolutely nothing ... probably all it would do is give drug dealers more money and give pubs more money.

Lol, 35% of taxpayers money on welfare, which Newstart is one of the lowest paid forms of welfare and lowest percentage spent of that 35%

Wasn't it something like $10 billion out of $190 billion is only spent on Newstart?
